 Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2008 2:10 pm Post subject: hiding questions |
 |
|
How does an application hide the GUI, so that it doesn't have tab in the toolbar, but in the bottom right, it has an icon where it has options, like: Open, Exit, Save, New, etc. Also, how do you unlink a process so that it's hidden, and what other ways can you make a process hidden. And how do you make custom right click menus? So like if someone is running your application and they right click, you have a menu you created,

Hiding the GUI is easy, just call ShowWindow with the nShowCmd parameter being SW_HIDE
To Create a system tray icon:
NOTIFYICONDATA (MSDN)
Shell_NotifyIcon (MSDN)
To Create a context menu for the tray icon:
CreatePopupMenu (MSDN)
AppendMenu (MSDN)
TrackPopupMenu (MSDN)
DestroyMenu (MSDN)
Code snippet:
| Code: | #define TRAY_RESTORE 2000
#define TRAY_EXIT 2001
void ShowContextMenu()
{
POINT pt;
GetCursorPos( &pt );
HMENU hMenu = CreatePopupMenu();
if ( hMenu )
{
AppendMenu( hMenu, MF_BYPOSITION, TRAY_RESTORE, _T("Restore") );
AppendMenu( hMenu, MF_SEPARATOR, 1, 0 );
AppendMenu( hMenu, MF_BYPOSITION, TRAY_EXIT, _T("Exit") );
SetForegroundWindow( hWnd );
TrackPopupMenu( hMenu, TPM_BOTTOMALIGN, pt.x, pt.y, 0, hWnd, NULL );
DestroyMenu( hMenu );
}
} |
Then in your window procedure (WM_COMMAND) filter for the Id's (TRAY_RESTORE/TRAY_EXIT).
You can use this method exactly the same for custom right clicks.
Because when u create a system tray icon you define its personal message, where in that message you filter
| Code: | case WM_SYSTRAYMSG:
switch ( LOWORD(lParam) )
{
case WM_RBUTTONDOWN:
case WM_CONTEXTMENU:
ShowContextMenu();
break;
}
break; |
while as if you want to do just a custom right click you can either filter directly from your window (WM_CONTEXTMENU/WM_RBUTTONDOWN) or you can filter through notifications on certain objects (WM_NOTIFY)
Finally to hide your process you have to use the Direct Kernel Object Manipulation (DKOM) method. Search around.
Hope this helped.

Ok. Well if I wanted to hide it and then add it to the tray:
| Code: |
#define SYSTRAY 100
NOTIFYICONDATA nid;
nid.hWnd = hwnd;
nid.uID = SYSTRAY;
ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_HIDE);
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &nid);
|
Right?

|
| Code: | nid.cbSize = sizeof(NOTIFYICONDATA);
nid.hWnd = hWnd;
nid.uID = LBOT_SYS_TRAY;
nid.uFlags = NIF_MESSAGE | NIF_TIP | NIF_ICON;
nid.hIcon = LoadIcon( hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON1) );
nid.uCallbackMessage = WM_LBOTSYSTRAY; |
This is how you should fill the structure (taken from lBot 1.9 Source)
IDI_ICON1 is an icon i added to a resource file.
Then if you want it ot have a tooltip you gotta copy the string to the struct like this (also taken from my bot, Note: This is looped that is why i am using NIM_MODIFY just copy the string to nid.szTip when your initializing the rest of the struct and call it with NIM_ADD if you don't plan to modify the tooltip.)
| Code: | TCHAR tszTip[260];
wsprintf( tszTip, _T("lBot 1.9.0\nHWND: %s\nStatus: %s"),
hMaple ? _T("MapleStory") : _T("Nothing"),
CheckStatus() ? _T(" Botting") : _T(" Nothing") );
_tcscpy_s( nid.szTip, _ARRAYSIZE(tszTip), tszTip );
Shell_NotifyIcon( NIM_MODIFY, &nid );
Sleep( 1000 ); |
Essentially though, yes, Hide the window and then create the system tray icon.
Extra Note:
Remember to call SetForegroundWindow to your main window that your restoring before u call ShowWindow with the parameter being SW_RESTORE

My code:
| Code: |
#include <windows.h>
#define SYSTRAYMSG WM_USER+0x0300
#define SYSTRAY 100
#define RESTORE 101
#define EXIT 102
void CreateIcon() {
NOTIFYICONDATA nid;
nid.cbSize = sizeof(NOTIFYICONDATA);
nid.hWnd = hwnd;
nid.uID = SYSTRAY;
nid.uFlags = NIF_MESSAGE;
ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_HIDE);
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &nid);
}
void ShowMenu() {
POINT point;
GetCursorPos(&point);
HMENU hMenu = CreatePopupMenu();
AppendMenu(hMenu, MF_STRING, RESTORE, "Restore");
AppendMenu(hMenu, MF_SEPERATOR, 1, 0);
AppendMenu(hMenu, MF_STRING, EXIT, "Exit");
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
TrackPopupMenu(hMenu, TPM_BOTTOMALIGN, point.x, point.y, 0, hwnd, NULL);
DestroyMenu(hMenu);
}
//coding
case SYSTRAYMSG:
switch(LOWORD(wParam)) {
case RESTORE:
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_NORMAL);
break;
case EXIT:
PostQuitMessage(0);
}
break;

Btw, a tooltip in this case would be like when they hover their mouse over it, it would say something like "Status: , Percent: , etc" (Just an example, could be anything right?)

RESTORE and EXIT are filtered through WM_COMMAND
| Code: | case WM_LBOTSYSTRAY:
{
switch ( LOWORD(lParam) )
{
case WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK:
SetForegroundWindow( hWnd );
SysTray( FALSE );
break;
case WM_RBUTTONDOWN:
case WM_CONTEXTMENU:
ShowContextMenu();
break;
}
break;
}
...
...
case WM_COMMAND:
switch ( LOWORD(wParam) )
{
/** SysTray **/
case LST_EXIT: DestroyWindow( hWnd ); SysTray( FALSE ); break;
case LST_RESTORE: SysTray( FALSE ); break;
case LST_SETTING: _CreateThread(OpenSettings); break; |
This is how it looks in mine.

Taken from NOTIFYICONDATA (MSDN) Link at uCallbackMessage

Oh ok. So here's my finalized code. Btw, what message is called when the user hit's the minimize button? I want to hook it so that when they do that it hides the window and sends it to the systray.
| Code: |
#include <windows.h>
#define SYSTRAYMSG WM_USER+0x0300
#define SYSTRAY 100
#define RESTORE 101
#define EXIT 102
void CreateIcon() {
NOTIFYICONDATA nid;
nid.cbSize = sizeof(NOTIFYICONDATA);
nid.hWnd = hwnd;
nid.uID = SYSTRAY;
nid.uFlags = NIF_MESSAGE;
nid.uCallbackMessage = SYSTRAYMSG;
ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_HIDE);
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &nid);
}
void ShowMenu() {
POINT point;
GetCursorPos(&point);
HMENU hMenu = CreatePopupMenu();
AppendMenu(hMenu, MF_STRING, RESTORE, "Restore");
AppendMenu(hMenu, MF_SEPERATOR, 1, 0);
AppendMenu(hMenu, MF_STRING, EXIT, "Exit");
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
TrackPopupMenu(hMenu, TPM_BOTTOMALIGN, point.x, point.y, 0, hwnd, NULL);
DestroyMenu(hMenu);
}
//coding
case SYSTRAYMSG:
switch(LOWORD(lParam)) {
case WM_LBUTTONDBLCLICK:
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_RESTORE);
break;
case WM_CONTEXTMENU:
ShowMenu();
break;
}
break;
case WM_COMMAND:
switch(LOWORD(wParam)) {
case RESTORE:
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_RESTORE);
break;
case EXIT:
PostQuitMessage(0);
break;
}
break;

WM_SIZE is the message sent when a window minimizes, maximizes, restores, etc.
| Code: | (WinUser.h)
/*
* WM_SIZE message wParam values
*/
#define SIZE_RESTORED 0
#define SIZE_MINIMIZED 1
#define SIZE_MAXIMIZED 2
#define SIZE_MAXSHOW 3
#define SIZE_MAXHIDE 4 |
so in your windows procedure, just filter for WM_SIZE like so:
| Code: | case WM_SIZE:
if ( wParam == SIZE_MINIMIZED )
CreateIcon();
break; |

Hey. I can't filter out WM_CONTEXTMENU or load an icon. Am I doing something wrong.
| Code: |
nid.hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
|
| Code: |
case SYSTRAYMSG:
switch(LOWORD(lParam)) {
case WM_CONTEXTMENU:
ShowMenu();
break;
}
break;
